Ready First (R1): Youth Sports

Ready First (R1) is the daily readiness system built for youth and youth athletes, ages 6 to 17, across 40+ sports.

A child can look physically fine and still be mentally exhausted. Measure only one part of them, and you miss the whole picture. R1 reads three: Mind, Body, and Energy, through a short daily check-in that returns one clear signal — Rebuilding, Rising, or Ready — so parents and coaches always know what today asks of their child, and exactly what to do about it.

WHAT R1 IS • A daily Mind, Body, and Energy check-in built for growing athletes • Personalized programming for mind, body, and energy that meets your child exactly where they are based on what they do • A parent experience showing the full picture, always • A coach view showing readiness before the first whistle • Support that shows up while a child develops, not after something breaks

WHAT R1 IS NOT • Not a fitness tracker, and not a workout app • Not a test, a score, or a ranking system • Not a medical or diagnostic tool — R1 does not diagnose, treat, or make any decision with legal or medical effect

BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO'VE PROTECTED ELITE ATHLETES R1 was built by a team with decades of experience across strength and conditioning, mental performance consulting, nutrition and sleep science, with ongoing oversight from a board-certified pediatric sports medicine physician.

FOR PARENTS See exactly where your child stands each day across Mind, Body, and Energy, and get clear, age-appropriate guidance for what to do next. No pressure, no guilt for a missed day, just a clear picture and a next step.

FOR COACHES Know every athlete's readiness before practice starts, with coaching prompts (not workout plans) that meet each athlete where they are.

Privacy is built in from the ground up. We never sell your child's data, never show your child advertising, and never use your child's individual data to train AI models.
